A/N: Apologies for the lack of updates. When I started this fic last year, I was at a loss at a certain character role. Then came Karin, finally giving me what I needed. Oh, and despite what you see on top with the characters' names, there is no Male/Male romance in this fic, so sorry to disappoint you.

One year later

At a household, Sasuke Uchiha was sleeping in his bed, having a nice dream.

Sasuke's Dream

Sasuke was sitting on the beach.

A pink haired girl was running to Sasuke with a hat on her head and her face covered by a piece of cloth. She was carrying a sign reading, "I want another man!"

Sasuke picks up a sign. "My head hurts."

The pink haired girl takes out another sign. "How about some lunch?"

"Can I look at your face more, please?" asked Sasuke.

The pink haired girl shakes her head and as she walks away, she faces Sasuke and unties the scarf covering her face and tossed it away. Then she tossed a pair of socks to Sasuke.

"Please, you didn't need to take off so much?"

The pink haired girl slaps Sasuke's face. "Pervert!"

Sasuke wakes up.

"It that same dream every night, but I always fail to see her face each time."

As Sasuke sits down for breakfast, Kakashi was at the dining table.

"Itachi called last night and he'll call again later," Kakashi said.

"Thanks, Kakashi."

Sasuke switches on the videophone on the table to see Itachi in a business suit.

"Hey, Bro."

Itachi (On Videophone): Having breakfast?

"Yeah, but when are you coming back?" Sasuke asked.

Itachi(On Videophone) : Well, at the moment, we're kinda busy over at this end, but I should try to get back by the end of the month. Just promise me that you'll get all distinctions in the Finals in three months time.

"Please, there's no need to pressure me."

Itachi: Alright, I'll see you next month.

"Next month? But it's the first today."

Itachi: "Really? You know what; I'll try to return sometime this month. See you, baby brother."

"Bye." Sasuke hangs up. "Kakashi..."

Kakashi looked up from his orange book. "Yes?"

"Is there a reason why my brother has to travel 300 times in a year since we're already so rich?"

Kakashi sighed. "Ever since your parents died, your brother has been busy maintaining the family business and asking me to make sure that you would not be led astray. But listen, remember your last birthday? Your brother didn't make it in time, but he was able to send you a motorbike as an early birthday present, just in case."

Sasuke continued to eat his breakfast. "I don't want another bike. I want a family dinner with my brother."

Kakashi was about to say something, but Sasuke does have a point. He hasn't been spending time with his elder brother in a long time.

"Thanks for breakfast, Kakashi." Sasuke gives the plate to Kakashi. "I'm off to school now."

Sasuke was riding to school on his bicycle, completely oblivious to a car full of his bodyguards behind him.
A pink-haired girl was serving breakfast in a Café.

"It's ready!" Sakura yelled out.

Kurenai's voice: Alright, now can you...

Sakura looks at her watch. "Sorry, I gotta go to school!"

Kurenai walked out of the kitchen and sees Sakura running off with a bag of buns.

"She sweeps the school this early?" Kurenai asked herself.

Kurenai looks at the clock.

"She won't have classes until 8:15."

Sakura takes a bun and called out, "I'm leaving!"

Sakura was on the bus next to her friend, Ino.

Ino looks at the bun. "Nice bun, can I have one?" Ino asked.

Sakura eats the bun. "Sorry, I have finished it." Sakura as she cleaned her hands.

"By the way, why are you leaving a few stops early?"

"Aren't you the busybody?" Sakura stood up and called out. "Excuse me, I want to get off!"

Sakura jumps off the bus and runs to a basketball court where she watches a group of students playing basketball, with Sakura looking at a dark-haired male with onyx eyes. As Sakura watches Sasuke tossed the ball into the hoop, Ino appeared next to Sakura and caught Sakura by surprise.

"Oh, so that's who you're getting off for." asked Ino, with a huge smirk.

Sasuke looks up and sees Sakura with Ino. Sakura realized that Sasuke has seen her

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Sakura suddenly runs off screaming, knocking over a delivery guy carrying some boxes.

"Hey, I think that girl was looking at you," said Sasuke's friend.

"At you," Sasuke said back to his friend.

"No, you!"

Sakura was hiding behind a bush and Ino caught up with her.

"Why did you run do fast!" Ino asked as she catches her breath.

"Who asked you to follow me?" Sakura asked.

"So, you actually get off a few stops ahead just to sneak a peek at that cute kid?"

Sakura shakes her head in denial. "No, I only wanted to learn about basketball."

"But you don't like to play basketball. But to tell you the truth...it suits you."

Sakura looks around, then whispered to Ino, "Let me tell you, don't tell anyone."

"Sure, but it depends on whether you'll treat me or not."

"Alright, I'll bring a bun tomorrow for you."

Ino looks at Sakura. "No way, how about treating me to a karaoke?"

"Don't you find this too much?"

Ino laughed. "I was only kidding. Come on, we're buddies."

"Ok, don't even tell a soul."

Ino nods and promised Sakura. "Sure."

Sakura and Ino continued walking to school.

Sasuke was walking with his friends when Karin walked up to Sasuke.

"Sasuke-kun, I want to talk to you."

"Sorry, Karin, I have to get to class."

Karin: But I only want to talk to you.

Sasuke looks at his watch. "But classes will start in five minutes."

"Listen, I was only trying to scare you when I said that I'm breaking up with you," said Karin.

"Seriously, Karin. We are diffrent from each other."

"I don't believe you."

"Leave it after school." Sasuke walked to class.

"Sasuke-kun!"

At East Konoha Private school, Sasuke was in the science lab with Iruka.

"You know, if you are really interested in Chemistry, you can get a good job as a biochemical engineer or a biotechnological engineer. It should help you a lot on the study of DNA. "

"Thanks, Iruka-Sensei."

"All you need to do is to do this one by one and write me a report, ok?"

"Sure."

"At your standard, you should be a student-teacher."

Sasuke was modest. "But I really feel I'm not up to it."

Iruka suddenly felt stomach pain. "I really need to go to the toilet, my stomach hurts."

The teacher runs out of the lab as Sasuke places a chemical into boiling water. As Sasuke watched his stopwatch, he didn't notice Karin standing outside the window, which happens to be a few stories up.

"Sasuke-kun!"

Sasuke looks away from the water.

"Karin! What are you doing outside? Please, come in."

"No, unless you'll go out with me again."

"I have no time for this, get inside."

Karin refused to move. "No, I won't get down! Not until you promise!"

"Don't joke, Karin! Get down and we'll talk about this."

"I'll jump if you don't go out with me!" Karin looks

"Karin! You come in and we could talk about this!"

Karin begins to feign dizzyness. "Come and help me, I don't think I have any strength left."

Sasuke sighed. "Right, I'll come and help you."

No one was watching the experiment. Sasuke climbs out of the window and walks to Karin. Down below, the students were watching and a group brought out a trampoline.

"I don't know what is your problem, Karin, but grab my hand."

Karin grabs Sasuke's hand.

"Let's kiss and make up," said Karin.

Sasuke disagreed. "First, we go inside."

"No!" screamed Karin. "We'll both go down if you don't want to come back to me."

"Go inside, Karin!"

Sasuke's experiment as it sets off a small explosion and Karin slipped down, pulling Sasuke's pants down in the process.

Outside the principal's office, Sasuke was standing outside as he watches Karin inside with the principal.

"Ok, tell me what happened?"

Karin was in tears. "Sasuke...says he loves me so much, and then me pulled me into a classroom, caressed and kissed me. I was so scared that I climbed out the window, but he still chased me. I was so scared that I almost fell down."

The Principal looks outside his office at Sasuke.

"Sasuke, you have violated the rules and harmed yourself and the life of your schoolmate. Even though you have high marks and a chance to score all distinctions in the finals, I'm afraid that I have to expel you."

Sasuke leaves the school.

Back at Sasuke's house, Itachi was on the video phone.

Itachi: How did Sasuke get expelled?

"He was framed," explained Kakashi.

Itachi: Well, we can't do anything much about that. How about sending him to ...Konoha… High school

"What high school?" asked Kakashi

Itachi: If you can't fix the situation...West…Konoha...then…I could as well fire you!

Kakashi was unsure if he heard Itachi properly. " West Konoha High school?" asked Kakashi.

Itachi: I got something else to do. Bye!

Itachi hangs up.

"Well, I better find this West Konoha High before I get fired," Kakashi said to himself.
